SOUTHWEST CALIFORNIA AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LOS ANGELES/OXNARD CA
223 PM PDT WED MAY 7 2014

.SYNOPSIS...

GUSTY WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE FOR THE PARTS OF THE
AREA AT TIMES THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. A WARMING TREND WILL
CONTINUE INTO THURSDAY AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE MOVES
OVERHEAD...FOLLOWED BY SLIGHT WARMING THROUGH SATURDAY. A MORE
SIGNIFICANT WARM IS EXPECTED FOR SUNDAY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK AS A RIDGE AND OFFSHORE WINDS DEVELOP.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY-SAT)...

A LOT OF STRATOCU FORMED ALONG THE CENTRAL COAST AND ACROSS THE LA
BASIN AND VALLEYS TODAY AND HAS BEEN SLOWER TO BURN OFF THAN
EXPECTED. THIS WAS LIKELY THE RESULT OF SOME LINGERING LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH YESTERDAY UPPER LOW. CLOUDS
IN THESE AREAS SHOULD DISSIPATE AROUND SUNSET...WITH THE LOSS OF DAY
TIME HEATING...THEN REFORM OVERNIGHT. LOW CLOUD RE-DEVELOPMENT OVER
THE LA COAST AND VALLEYS TONIGHT SHOULD BE HELPED BY THE SPIN UP OF
ANOTHER EDDY. CONFIDENCE IS PRETTY LOW IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOW
CLOUDS FOR LA COUNTY THOUGH...AS THERE ISN'T MUCH OF AN INVERSION.

THE OTHER THING TO WATCH THIS EVENING WILL BE SOME GUSTY SUNDOWNER
WINDS. A WIND ADVISORY WILL BE ISSUED THROUGH 3AM FOR THE SBA
MOUNTAINS AND SOUTH COAST WITH THE AFTERNOON UPDATE. A FEW SITES
ALONG THE SANTA YNEZ RANGE AND SOUTHEN FOOTHILLS ARE GUSTING TO 35
MPH AT THIS TIME AND SBA-SMX IS ALREADY AT -3.1MB...SO AN ADVISORY
SEEMS LIKE A GOOD BET. A SIMILAR WIND ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED TO
TOMORROW EVENING AS WELL.

MORE WARMING IS EXPECTED FOR THURSDAY...AS A WEAK 500MB RIDGE
EMBEDDED IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW MOVES OVERHEAD. THERE WILL LIKELY BE
SOME HIGH CLOUDS MOVING THROUGH WITH THE RIDGE THOUGH...WHICH WILL
KEEP TEMPERATURES A COUPLE DEGREES COOLER THAN THEY COULD HAVE BEEN.

SHOULD BE A BETTER CHANCE OF SOME STRATUS FOR THE LA COAST ON FRIDAY
MORNING AS ANOTHER EDDY SPINS UP AND THE INVERSION STRENGTHENS A
BIT. DURING THE DAY FRIDAY...500MB FLOW FLATTENS OUT AND BECOMES
NORTHWEST AGAIN. AT THE SURFACE...WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW STRENGTHENS
A BIT AS A SURFACE LOW STARTS TO DEVELOP OVER THE DESERT. THIS WILL
RESULT IN LITTLE CHANGE IN TEMPERATURES FROM THURSDAY. ADVISORY
LEVEL SUNDOWNER WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

ON SATURDAY...AN INSIDE SLIDER STARTS TO PASS BY TO OUR NORTH AND
EAST. OUT AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM...SURFACE LOW PRESSURE OVER THE
DESERT CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN...RESULTING IN CONTINUED MODERATE
WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW AT THE SURFACE. TEMPERATURE-WISE...NOT MUCH
CHANGE EXPECTED FROM FRIDAY.

.LONG TERM (SUN-WED)...

ON SUNDAY...THE SURFACE HIGH WILL START TO BUILDING INTO THE GREAT
BASIN FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF THE INSIDE SLIDE...RESULTING IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF SOME OFFSHORE FLOW BY SUNDAY MORNING. OFFSHORE FLOW
STRENGTHENS ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS THE SURFACE HIGH CONTINUES TO
BUILD INTO THE GREAT BASIN. AT THE SAME TIME...A LARGE RIDGE OF HIGH
PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THE WEST COAST. THIS WILL
RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT WARM UP FOR THE REGION...WITH HIGHS IN THE
VALLEYS EXPECTED TO BE IN THE MID 90S FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.
PRETTY GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE LONG TERM FORECAST FOR THIS FAR
OUT...AS MODELS SEEM TO BE IN GOOD AGREEMENT. WILL JUST HAVE TO FINE
TUNE HOW HOT IT WELL GET AND HOW STRONG THE OFFSHORE WINDS WILL BE
IN THE COMING DAYS.

&&

.AVIATION...07/1800Z.
PLENTY OF MOISTURE REMAINS ENTRENCHED IN THE COASTAL AND VALLEY
SECTIONS AND MODEL PROGNOSTICATIONS INDICATE THAT THE MOISTURE WILL
LIKELY RETURN TONIGHT. AN EDDY IS EXPECTED TO ASSIST CLOUD FORMATION
IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY AND RESIDUAL MOISTURE WILL BRING CLOUDS BACK
TO THE CENTRAL COAST. THERE IS LESS CERTAINTY REGARDING CLOUDS
COMING BACK TO THE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY SOUTH COAST AND THE VENTURA
COUNTY COAST. THE LA VALLEY TAFS WILL ALSO HAVE CLOUDS MOVING BACK
IN AFTER MIDNIGHT.

KLAX...GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE RETURN OF CLOUDS THIS EVENING WITH
MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES UNTIL MIDDAY THURSDAY WHEN SKIES WILL AGAIN
CLEAR OUT. THERE IS A 30 PERCENT CHANCE OF LOW CLOUDS MOVING IN PLUS
OR MINUS TWO HOURS FROM THE TAF ESTIMATE.

KBUR...GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE RETURN OF CLOUDS AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH
CLOUDY SKIES UNTIL LATE MORNING ON THURSDAY. THERE IS A 30 PERCENT
CHANCE OF LOW CLOUDS MOVING IN PLUS OR MINUS TWO HOURS FROM THE TAF
ESTIMATE.

&&

.MARINE...07/300 PM PDT.

WILL CONTINUE WITH THE IDEA OF A STRONG SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY...BUT
WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE SOME ISOLATED GUSTS TO 35 KNOTS DURING
THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. FOR THE OUTER WATERS...THE SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT...WHILE THE WINDS
ACROSS THE INNER WATERS DIMINISH BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS THIS EVENING.
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS ARE POSSIBLE AGAIN IN THE OUTER
WATERS ON THURSDAY.

FROM FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND...THE NORTHWEST FLOW WILL INCREASE
AGAIN WITH GALE FORCE WINDS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE OUTER WATERS.
